Massage & Your Wellness


By: Wade Rivas

Massage therapy has been utilized as a therapeutic measure for generations and of different cultures around the world. Even though distinct types of massage techniques are designed to target specific areas to promote natural healing processes, you can find some distinctive rewards that you can get from regular massage. Physical positive aspects range from improved circulation and flexibility in tense muscles, as well as lower tension levels. Mental benefits include a calm mind, increased awareness, better focus and concentration, as well as elevated alertness. Aside from those physical and mental benefits mentioned, here are the other health benefits that you can get from massage.

Promotes deeper breathing. Deep breathing is very important to ensure that oxygen circulates easily throughout your body, thus promotes healing in the process. Decreased oxygen circulation results in headaches, tension aches and muscle pain. By enhancing your oxygen intake, you will naturally promote the release of toxins and negative energy within your body.

Improves posture. Although massage should not be used as a replacement for a chiropractic diagnosis, posture can slowly and normally improve as the spine and muscles around the spine become more flexible and supple. Improved posture also aids in breathing and lessen the tension throughout the body.

Improves blood circulation. An improvement in both blood and lymph circulation helps your system gain strength and maximizes your power level. Massage can assist in removing toxins inside blood and encourage fresh energy to circulate fast. Efficient circulation also assists in muscle recovery and growth, as well as promotes the normal healing process.

Enhances skin tone and skin wellness. High-quality oils and creams used by massage therapists can significantly improve the tone and wellness of your skin for just a few massage sessions. Skin cells are revitalized, moisturized and replenished naturally. Choose Vitamin E and organic grape seed oil bases for maximum positive aspects.

Increases and promotes joint flexibility. Recurring state of anxiety or overused joints can stunt growth and create problems later. Massage helps to relieve stored tension and encourages flexibility of the joints after rest. Any soreness experienced soon after a massage is usually an indication that these are tension spots for you and focusing on these areas on your next massage will boost joint recovery. You will discover even some special oil formulations to target joints, so do check with your massage therapist beforehand to discuss some options.

So, if you feel those muscles aching, [visit one of our] reputable massage therapists, sit back, relax and enjoy the benefits a soothing massage can give you.
